  1. I have about a dozen different teas, but technically none in my cupboard. I have a tea storage unit on my counter. So you're right about the cupboard bit. lol
  2. I like that quote. I never understood the argument that you have to be the same race as the characters of the shows you love. What I do understand is that, if your race only has a handful of characters out there, that it is shitty as hell for some white dude to go around complaining because he can't take one away from you. Seriously. This should be an eye opener for him. This is how it has felt for decades, centuries for people not in the majority. Only difference is, he still has more opportunities than they do. In other words, SHUT THE FUCK UP DREYFUSS. Also, Patrick Stewart is awesome and a reverse of Othello is very intriguing. That is not trying to take from the minority. Blackfacing to portray another race is just... no
  3. That's my take. He has been a working actor long enough that if he'd wanted to play a black man he would have by now. He just doesn't want his choices taken away and given to someone else because he's used to having all the options. He doesn't get how hard it is when your options are limited due to your skin color.
  4. Maybe if it had been a bikini model stuck oversees who needed the money to come back to the US to do the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit edition and if he sent her the money she'd get him invited to the shoot. lol
  5. Whew, I was remembering that correctly. I thought that was the case but then I was like, that's kind of, now the kids balls are in the same knickers Trevor's balls were just in... then I realized I was thinking way too much about ghost balls and gave up.
  6. And Moana! Those are honestly the only two movies I can think of that I've seen him in, which could be why I love him. They were both fun roles. I did try to watch some horrible spy vs spy type movie he was in with Ryan Reynolds, but not even Ryan (whom I absolutely adore) could get me to watch the whole thing.
  7. If Crash died with his head cut off, assuming it was cut off and flew away from his body, then his head should never actually stay on his body in death. It would amuse me to think that every time he gets his head back whoever is in charge of the ghosts comes up with odd ways for him to lose it again, like Flower and Isaac tossing it around.
  8. He was never my type but I remember a lot of my contemporaries swooning over Uncle Jesse. I was more into Uncle Joey at the time as I like funny guys.
  9. I'm guessing not famous enough. While the name sounded vaguely familiar, but I think I might have been thinking of Michael E Knight, because when I googled him I was quite surprised. He looks vaguely familiar in a "I think I might have known who he was once". He also benefits from a lot of far more famous people being shitty humans as well and taking the spotlight of shittiness away from him.
  10. I like The Rock... but it is not for his acting skills. One thing I like about him is that he doesn't seem to think of himself as a great actor and is just having fun. Two things I like about him are his biceps. I'm shallow. They're massive.
  11. As someone who loves sleeping and gets bored easily, that would be my afterlife gameplan. Wake up once a year, get the other ghosts to give me a rundown of what went on, catch a nice sunset, then back to bed.
  12. And with one quote he just became about 70% less attractive. Even if they had feet for faces, they're babies, just say they weren't charismatic, or they cried even more, or they just didn't work out. I know that there is a contingent of people in the world who think being an ass is "sexy" but being a decent human being who doesn't make fun of children's looks after firing babies for crying too much is way hotter.
  13. Yeah, it is very odd how he's telling this story of calling kids unattractive and having no patience for babies crying as a cute anecdote. It's not cute, it's kind of horrible. Given that a hugh deal of the shows success was because of the Olsen Twins "cuteness" (I never found them cute but the viewing public in general seemed to LOVE them), he's basically sharing a story about how he almost sunk his most successful job. lol
  14. I think Thor was definitely just messing with Sass. Like he does with Pete and acting like he doesn't know specific words. I think it's how he amuses himself. After a few thousand years Thor find amusement where Thor can. I also love owls. Maybe When I die I can be Thor and Flower's third. lol I absolutely love how this show handled the whole secret sneaker/interview plot, truly cementing Sam and Jay as the greatest television couple since Gomez and Morticia. Most shows would have had them fight about it, but Sam and Jay actually talked and more importantly listened to each other. I think Sam doesn't realize how lonely it is there for Jay. She's not lonely because she has the ghosts, and while she does make an effort to include him, it really isn't the same. Jay was able to say it and she listened and came up with a solution. And now Jay has a friend!!!! I still wish he and Pete could communicate though.
  15. Do they not have taste? Or is it that they just can't eat. If they can't eat, how do they know they can't taste? They can smell because smell doesn't require touch but eating requires picking things up and ingesting them which would be tricky. I have no problem with them being able to touch each other (hehe, sorry, can't help myself) since they are made of the same stuff. With the furniture I assume it's kind of muscle memory and they are more just hovering on beds and chairs and things like their bodies are used to. The washing machine is a tougher one to get around since Hetty would not at all have been familiar with that sensation and Hovering wouldn't give one the vibrating required for what they were doing with it. But hey, maybe that's her special ghost power. HAHA
  16. Well, d'uh. 😉 I think about 90% of the time, on that last bit where they pick one celeb to match, the contestant would pick Dawson just in the hopes of getting it right so they could get their kiss. Not saying I would (but I totally would). 😚 I grew up watching Match Game. When I started watching it again as an adult I started to question some of my mum's parenting choices lol (kidding. I love that my mum let me watch a lot of funny adult shows. It is what has given me the wicked sense of humour I have today).
  17. Seriously. If they live on the same street, just go over and say "sorry I thought you aren't talented enough to still be alive" because, unlike Matthew Perry, Keanu is a nice guy and won't actually punch him in the face, even if no one would judge him if he did. I am wondering that too. Especially after reading the last bit and seeing Chris Farley also mentioned, another person who OD'd. Just reading up a bit and all I can find is that Keanu admits to having taken drugs in his life. Also, he was very close to River, which makes Perry choosing him as a comparison extra mean.
  18. Does Matthew Perry think he's better than Keanu? Like, shouldn't he be asking why Matthew Perry is still alive when people like River Phoenix died? I may not be a fan of Keanu's acting (I think he's acting, it's kind of hard to tell in most of his movies) but I think he's a pretty awesome human being. I used to like Matthew Perry but the more of learn of him the less I like him. Just rubs me the wrong way.
  19. This isn't horror show, so I'm fine with santized, bloodless ghosts. I wouldn't want to see gore in my feel good comedy. It's a show about ghosts, so I'm willing to give realism a pass. I do think Car Ghost is the goriest we've seen, and it was enough.
  20. I never thought Roper was gay but I did think Mr Furley was. I thought Roper was just the standard dufus/annoyed husband archetype that was common at the time. While I did watch Three's Company as a kid, and enjoyed it, I never liked the Ropers. If I'm being honest, I don't think I really liked any of them, it was just that there were less options back then and it could be funny. It is not a show I would want to revisit though.
  21. I may have chosen my small blue car just so I can say "I've been incarcerated in a blueberry."
  22. It is kind of odd. I just assume that, since he died outside, maybe they aren't that bothered by it, and perhaps it is a weird way of "having him there". Like the daughter said, she felt like his presence was there, even though she doesn't know his ghost is hanging at the house, she felt some connection to him, so that probably overrode the ickiness of his dying there. I mean, at least he died doing something he loved, being a scout leader, and it was an accident rather than murder. In the end, though, I don't care why because it made Pete so happy, and I'll admit, it made me cry, and I am not a wedding crier. But I have a huge soft spot for our dear Pete. I also love that his grandson has memorized every detail of that scout handbook. That's gotta make Pete feel good. It's a way he can be in the boy's life even though he's dead. I just hope that Sam gets put back on the family newsletter! And please, Pony and Bangs, work on solving Alberta's murder! And please, writers, make Pony and Bangs Detective Agency an ongoing thing. Like once a season have them solve some mini mystery. It was such fun watching them work together, even if Isaac had to throw a man's head into a tree to make it happen.
  23. I had read book 1 long before the tv series was announced. I bought it because of my love of Jonathan Stroud's Bartimaeus series. I was disappointed when I first read Lockwood & Co as I didn't like it. I found all three of the lead characters annoying. Still, I watched the series and Loved it. So I went back and reread the book and loved it. I think it really helped me to be able to visualize the actors who brought so much charm and charisma to characters that came across as annoying on paper. I just bought book 2 and can't wait to read it. Given that the title is The Whispering Skull, and the synopsis sounds like what happened in the show, I think it will be a quick read and I'll be anxious to get to book 3.
  24. Sooo, if you understand Nick Cannon you will get knocked up by Nick Cannon? RUN TAYLOR RUN!!!!!! ETA: I am so glad I don't understand that man at all. (dodged that bullet)
  25. That was kind of how I took it. Like he was thinking, I wonder what she thinks she's saying because there's no way those to are congressing amorously. I would have know, she would have said, wait, what, it's TRUE!?!??!?!"
